Alledgedly true:
This is a true story from an Arsenal Season Ticket Holder from last
Season and highlights the fact that woman just don't get football.

His season-ticket last year was an absolute plum seat half way up the
Highbury main stand close to the half-way line. In other words, a TV
camera style view.

Anyway, after the first few games of the season it became apparent that
despite all the home games being sell-outs, the two seats on his left
were always empty. This continued until just after Christmas when all of
a sudden a guy and his young son appeared there.

After a few weeks of sitting next to this guy and his son, he decided to
ask if the guy knew why the seats had been empty for half the season.

The response is legendary:
Yeah don't even go there mate. The wife bought me and my son a season
ticket but decided it would be a nice idea to give us them for
Christmas. I was f***in' raging!'

Slightly off topic, daftest thing I ever did re tickets,had some work to do in a Building Society,pulls up, and there's a nice fat pay and display parking space right at the door, right I'll have some of that one thinks, machine on the wall about twenty feet away so goes up and feeds it hours worth of coins and gets the ticket,then thinks,hold on! more than a hours worth of work in that place, so feeds machine another hours worth of coins and gets another ticket,eeeaaaaww!!!! of course both tickes expire at the same time,one uses the excuse that finding a parking space like that was so rare it threw one into a tizzy.
:uhoh: :rolleyes:
